  It hasn't really felt like the Irish juvenile form is quite as strong thus season and there is no horse turning up here that has farmed the Grade 1s like we have had in the past. At home in the UK though we have a very lively contender in MINELLA STUDY, who was winless and largely ineffective on the flat but is now 3 from 3 over hurdles and has looked a transformed animal by obstacles. His form also stacks up very well with his latest impressive win over C&D coming over a horse that ran a big race in the Fred Winter on Tuesday. It is probably a bonus that the ground has stayed on the good side and with his uncomplicated running style there isn't a huge amount that can go wrong here.

  SIXANDAHALF is an easy selection for me here as this is a mare I have been keeping an eye on since she was such an eye catcher on the Dawn Run here last year. She hasn't set the world alight in hurdles so far this season but the combination of small fields and longer trips haven't been ideal. She was so at effective racing off the pace in a big field last season that I think she may well be able to produce her best here again today.

  Focus here seems to be mainly on the first two in the market but I don't think they are as far ahead on form as the betting suggests. ONLY BY NIGHT, is my selection to take them on as she has displayed significant levels of the requisite class required including against male opposition. His 2nd in the Arkle last year is the standout bit of form but her win at Naas this term was also a very good piece of form.
